Spatone is simply iron-rich water straight from the source.

Spatone's iron rich water comes from Snowdonia and is collected at the Trefiw Wells Spa. It is believed that the Spa was first discovered by Romans from the XX Roman legion stationed at Canovium, 3 miles north of Trefriw. In about 1874 a Victorian bath and pump house was built and for the first time the water was sold to the public.

Published studies show that Spatone is easily absorbed and gentle on your stomach, a view backed by thousands of regular Spatone customers.

SPATONE and children

Rapid growth demands mean that children's iron requirements are high, relative to their body weight. When a growing child's diet does not satisfy the body's iron requirements, Spatone is the ideal supplement.

The only 100% natural iron supplement available, it is suitable for children over the age of two and can be diluted in fruit juice - providing your children's entire average daily iron requirement, a mineral which is absolutely essential for energy production and healthy growth in a tasty nutritional drink.

SPATONE and pregnancy

Health professionals advise women to review their diet and lifestyle when planning for a new baby. Ideally, it is recommended that couples give themselves 6-12 months to get to optimum health before conceiving. A health check is often a good idea.

Up to 30% of women are iron deficient. In order to have a healthy baby iron together with other important vitamins and minerals is a good foundation. In preparation for your pregnancy, one sachet of Spatone can provide the entire average (absorbed) daily iron requirement, and help to maintain or build up your iron level.

For during your pregnancy...

Research has shown that iron requirement can double during the second half of pregnancy. Because of this exceptional demand for iron, requirements are often not met by diet alone. It is often at this time that women are prescribed iron tablets and suffer with the uncomfortable symptoms that are often associated with them such as constipation.

Spatone provides a gentle alternative iron supplement that is ideal to take at this time. Clinical trials have proven it to be a highly absorbable and effective supplement during pregnancy.

For Post Natal use...

Lack of energy at this time can detract from the enjoyment and ability to cope with the demands that a new baby can bring. This lethargy is commonly caused by a lack of iron, perhaps through natural blood loss during delivery. It is important to replace it; not only to boost energy levels, but to aid the healthy production of milk.

Spatone is extremely useful to help maintain or quickly build up your iron levels at this time.
